In response to the LAPD's ambush on 'Street Thunder', the warlords of this gang known as "Cholo" swear revenge against the citizens and police of Los Angeles. The Cholo consists of a White Warlord, Black Warlord (James Johnson), Oriental Warlord (Al Nakauchi) and Chicano Warlord (Gilbert De la Pena).

Unfortunately, Kathy discovers that she was given the wrong flavour (plain vanilla) and goes back to the truck to complain. Kathy was unaware of the robbery and unwittingly interrupts the White Warlord's attack on the driver. Without hesitation, the White Warlord brutally shoots Kathy in the chest killing her instantly and proceeds to shoot the driver too. Kathy's father Lawson (Martin West) rushes to her corpse and is devastated. The mortally wounded driver lives long enough to tell Lawson that there is a gun under the dashboard before succumbing to his wounds. Lawson pursues the Warlords and engages in a gun battle with the White Warlord. Lawson succeeds in killing the White Warlord, thus avenging his slain daughter.

This results in a siege on the abandoned police station, during which the occupants have to work together to defend the station against the gang members and eventually succeed when backup arrives.
